Frequently asked questions

What is Restaurants Against Hunger?

Our flagship restaurant campaign where partner restaurants raise funds for our vital work by adding a £1 donation to their customers’ bills.

The campaign runs through September and October as this crosses over World Food Day on 16 October – a very important day for collective action at Action Against Hunger!

Why £1 on the bill?

£1 can buy one day’s worth of lifesaving food for a child suffering from malnutrition. Customers are more than welcome to donate more than £1 if they’d like to.

What assets does our restaurant receive?

Before the campaign starts, your restaurant will receive a fundraising pack with lots of resources to help you communicate to your staff and customers about the campaign, including table cards, a staff sheet and a fundraising guide with lots more information about the campaign.

You can also access our digital resources on our Google Drive.

Will you provide team training?

We provide a training video for your staff, and we also encourage all staff to read the staff sheet that is included in the fundraising pack.

We’re not using paper materials in store, how can we tell customers about the donation?

It’s important that the voluntary donation is communicated to customers at the point of payment. If table cards aren’t appropriate, please see our training video and variety of resources for staff to feel confident communicating about the donation.

What if a customer doesn’t want to donate?

That’s absolutely fine! We find this is rare, but the donation is completely optional so staff can easily remove the £1 from the bill.

When do we make our donation?

At the end of the campaign, our team will be in touch to invoice you for your fundraising. Once you let us know how much you’ve raised, we’ll raise an invoice with all of the details for you to make your donation to Action Against Hunger.

Once we receive your donation, we’ll send your restaurant a thank you pack for your incredible fundraising towards our work!
